SiteName: Sheppey - Harty Ferry Air Raid Shelter

A small air raid shelter is built into the bank on a field boundary
on the west side of the former road to the Harty
Ferry, just south of the Ferry Inn. The ferry which linked the Isle
of Sheppey to the mainland north of Faversham ceased in 1946.

The shelter consists of a single room with a blast protected entrance.
In one corner of the room there is a square escape shaft in the roof
above with iron bars across the corner acting as a ladder. Adjacent
to the entrance passage there is a single toilet cubicle.
